Soup is a SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) implementation in C. 

It provides an queued asynchronous callback-based mechanism for sending and
servicing SOAP requests, and a WSDL (Web Service Definition Language) to C
compiler which generates client stubs and server skeletons for easily calling
and implementing SOAP methods.

It uses the GLib main loop and is designed to work well with GTK applications.

  * Completely Asynchronous
  * Connection cache
  * HTTP chunked transfer and persistent connections
  * authenticated HTTP, SOCKS4, and SOCKS5 proxy support
  * SSL Support using OpenSSL
  * Apache module server support
